Earthquake Aug. 2011

I believe earthquake's are the cruelest jokes that the Earth plays on us as a species. Last year there was an earthquake in Quebec & it could be felt here in Toronto, this time the Earthquake seems to be centred in Virgina and it was about 5.9. This years quake for me last about 20-30 secs, last years I was entirely sure what was going on, this time I knew. Last year I was on the 9th floor at work and my computer screen rocked back and forth, but I had to wait for someone else in the office to go 'what was that'? This time I was sitting in my dinning room at home on the 6th floor and I felt the chair, the table sway & I could see the tea in my mug moving back & forth, also I looked up at my cloth's drying rack moving back & forth & my lamp swaying very visibly. Both times my reaction was to completely freeze and just kind of look around. This one I defiantly had more time to look around & think about do I need to hide under that table or am I fine. The one thing that kept going through my head was, when is this going to stop? Of all things in life, earthquakes are one thing I could have lived without.

FanExpo in just 3 days!!!!

On Thr I will be at the FanExpo in downtown Toronto. This will be my 6th or 7th year. Yup I'm losing count. This year I will be staying at the Fairmount Royal York Hotel with my friend Jonathan & his buddy, I'm super excited. I'm not sure what the internet is going to be like at the Royal York, I"m hoping it'll be good so I might be able to do a few posts, but if not the Monday after the con will be filled with lots & lots of pics & hopefully stories.

For anyone who doesn't know FanExpo is the largest convention of it's type in Canada. & what type is it? It's, as my friend put it, a GeekFest. There's everything, Comics, Sci-Fi, Horror, Anime, Gaming, etc. There's a lot of stuff that crosses genere's which is always awesome. If you wanna know more check out their website(I swear they're not paying me, but it'd be nice) FanExpo Canada

See you all in a week!

PS I promise this time to actually come back in a week & not like a month or two

Father's Day Restaurant Review

On Father’s day for this year as a family we decided to go to Baton Rouge near Scarborough Town Centre. The building where the Baton Rouge is in used to be a place called the old Scot’s House. Apparently it was a pretty well-known place, but where it was situated wasn’t that great for traffic, as far as I can tell. Until recently there wasn’t exactly a lot out there, since Scarborough Town Centre renovated & there are now box stores out along Progress RD, where this restaurant is there’s a lot more people out there. My family has kind of grown as of late & it’s still growing. 1^st my bro got a gf, & then my cuz, & now my bro’s gf is pregnant. So on father’s day we had a party of 8 for the restaurant, they asked us if we would like a private room, I asked if there was any extra charge, they said no & I said yes to the private room. 1^st issue, when I was asked if I wanted a private room I was told it was upstairs, when we got there it was on the 1^st floor. I think what they had meant to say was that this restaurant is not wheelchair exesable. Now before someone one says ‘Hey isn’t’ that illegal!?” here in Toronto I know there are some buildings that can be exempt from those rules depending on the age of the building & whether or not it is a historical land mark, & I don’t’ know if that holds true for the Old Scots House.  Oh yeah & Baton Rouges idea of private room seemed to mean no one else is going to be sat in this area for a few hrs so you’ll be alone for a bit. These things wouldn’t have bothered me that much (at least not enough to generate a blog post) if it hadn’t been for other things to happen, or not happen as the case may be. At the begging of the meal our waiter informed us that Baton Rouge worked in a team atmosphere, meaning you could ask any server for something and they would help you out. Now I go to Jack Astor’s a lot & that’s one of their things & they do it really well, someone other than your server could show up at your table with your food & you could ask them for something & your server might return with it or someone else in a timely manner, Jack Astor’s knows how to do it. Baton Rouge on the other had doesn’t have to fully figured out, or at least this location doesn’t. 1^st off if any of us who had refillable drinks, water, coffee, pop, etc we were never asked if we wanted a refill, we had to ask our server whenever he came by, if that wasn’t just slightly annoying we had an incident with my bro’s dessert. My bro ordered Apple Cobbler, with ice cream on the side, when the apple cobbler arrived the ice cream was right on top of it, so they took it back & took the ice cream off, here’s the problem, my bro is allergic to dairy he was giving the ice cream to my mom for her dessert. When they brought out the dish my bro noticed that they had just scrapped the ice cream off & he had to get them to get him a new one, explaining his allergy. The guy who had been dealing with my bro’s dessert was not our server, now between him taking it back, again, & our server finding out we don’t know how long it was, but our server came out thinking that my bro had gotten his apple cobbler, which he hadn’t, so when the apple cobbler came back to us with the ice cream on the side the ice cream was almost completely melted. I never did find out how my bro liked the cobbler, but that thing must have spent some time under one of those restaurant heat lamps. On top of that we had to ask another server for our bill since our server disappeared.  Now I want people to understand I don’t complain lightly, I have worked 10 years in customer service, & I also have a Diploma in Hospitality & Tourism Administration, I have some idea what I’m talking about. My biggest problem with the bad experience is the food was awesome!!!!! Luckily there are a couple of other Baton Rouges in Toronto, but still the one we went to is so pretty & we were so looking forward to it. I’m hoping to add Baton Rouge to the restaurants we go to when I’m at the FanExpo, hopefully the Baton Rouge at the CNTower is a lot more organized than the Scarborough Town Centre one was.

All Caught Up

I have just finished catching up to Matt Smith on Doctor Who. I finally got to see the special where David Tenant leaves & it was AWESOME!!!! I'm not going to give too much away but a small spoiler would be that David Tenant gets to say goodbye to a lot of the characters that have been recurring on the show with him & those moments are very touching. It was a very well thought out, planned & executed show, I even cried(which really isn't that hard, but it was still very touching).
For me David Tenant is MY Doctor. I didn't really grow up watching Doctor Who, it used to be on TVO here in Ontario after a bunch of kids cartoons I watched, but the theme music scared me, I've never been able to figure out if that was because I had watched an episode & it had scared the shit out of me & had it imprinted on my mind afterwards, or if my mom would just turn the TV off when it came on to the point where I thought that the music was a bad thing, I dont' know. So I wasn't introduced to Doctor Who until I was much older, my good friend Sam had gotten the new Doctor Who on DVD & initiated me into one of the longest running Sci-Fi shows there are. I totally fell in love, right from the 'It's nice to meet you Rose, now run for your life!' Or some line like that. My favorite companion is Donna Noble, nobody can top her & I was very very VERY upset when she left, which I can't say how unless you've seen it cause that's a BIG spoiler.
I wasn't sure if I wanted to see Matt Smith, because David Tenant is my Doctor, but I had caught a couple of eps here & there, also a great commercial on Space where he's wearing a fez, it's hard to top that. So I downloaded all of series 5 and have caught up to the mid series cliff hanger on series 6.
I'm like Matt Smith's take on the Doctor, there's innocence there & a hell of a lot of him being a complete dork! I love it!!!!!!!!
So if you're still holding out because you loved David Tenant, don't worry, Matt Smith is awesome as the Doctor, but he's not David Tenant & he's not trying to be. Which is a great part for an actor playing the Doctor, it's the same character but totally different.

Toronto Zoo Trip

 Last Thr I went to the Toronto Zoo with my friend Sam & her BF Leo. It was an awesome trip, I haven't been to the zoo in what feels like forever. There were so many great moments, the peacock that had to block Sam from getting into the restaurant(Sam & peacocks have a whole history), the peacock that decided that all males of the human species were not allowed in the bathroom, the polar bear playing(which I have vid of) the long walk to see the Grizzly bears, the Emu trying to escape from a walk through area(I have vid of that too), & so much more. It was a fun day. I highly recomend going to popular destinations during the week if you can do it.

When we got to the zoo it's true that it felt like half of Scarborough schools had decided to have field trips that day. When you go through the main entrance of the Toronto Zoo there are a few ways to go to see the animals, but the biggest directions are the easy one's, right or left. Most of the super popular animals are off to the left, which is where all the children headed, so we went to the right. The 1st few pavilions were pretty quite too, which was just great to look at the animals. We could always hear the children coming. I'm still trying to decide if the elementary kids were loader than the teenagers. The elementary kids voices are kind of in the high pitch range so that does kind of add to the annoying factor. With the fact that they were so loud you could hear them coming from three province's away (for any Americana's just take a look at a Canadian map to understand how far that is) & they were pretty much all gone by three they didn't end up making a dent in our trip.

Overall awesome trip, I highly recomend the zoo if you have one in your city. If you don't have one in your city & you go on vacation to a place that has one, especially a good one, check it out.

Niagara Falls Trip

On May 14th of this year(2011) myself, EmperorEJ & his GF all went to Niagara Fall, ON, Canada. I was born & raised in Toronto so I have been to Niagara Falls A LOT of times, it's a pretty easy day trip from here. For EmperorEJ & his GF it was their 1st time going. They're originally from St John, NB, Canada. I love going to Niagara it's always a fun time. There's the super cheesey of the wax museums, Ripley's Belive it or Not, Fun Houses & all kinds of strangeness, I also LOVE the casino's. There was a slight problem that weekend, check out this vid & you'll understand

My YouTube Channel CrystalMAD17

I just finished uploading a whole bunch of vids on my YouTube Channel. I have stuff from my trip to Niagara Falls a couple of weeks ago. There's a vid of my bro's dog, Gambit.

Check'em out!!!
(Please & thank you!!!!)

Long Time

Holy Crap!!! I'm sucking at the blog thing these days. Sad because I'm home right now & have time to do them, I just keep seeming to find excuses not to do them. But that stops NOW!!! Why? Because I'm done being lazy at this and other stuff.

I'm not at home right at this second so I don't have access to a bunch of stuff I've wanted to blog about so this is also a bit of a preview of what's coming up. I will be adding a new blog(of course) I live in an apartment building in Toronto & the past 3 years or so we've grown tomatoes on the balcony so I'll be doing a balcony gardening blog since we've added strawberries & we are in the middle of locating seed potatoes.

Also a few weekends ago myself, EmperorEJ & his GF were all in Niagara Falls, Canada & I have pics & vids from the experience so I'll be posting those.

I'm still unemployed at this very second, so they'll be some whining about THAT at some point(you have been warned!) I'm hoping to add something to the dessert blog this week. I will also be doing a whole blog about the buses here in Toronto.

So get ready for more randomness & other weirdness!!!

I'm BACK baby!!

I'm Back!!!

I know it's been a while but I'm back! I finally feel like writing again. I'm currently watching MASH, I love MASH. Last night I went out with my family for mothers day. We had 3 mothers & 1 mother to be there. My family keeps getting bigger. When I was growing up it used to be just me mom & my bro, maybe my older cousin's once & a while, or my aunt & uncle & younger cousin when they came to visit from Newfoundland, so I'm finding it really weird to make a table reservation for 8 & there's a little one on the way. I can't wait for the little one, there were 3D ultrasounds taken & it's still amazing at how much detail there is in the photos, you look at the kid & you wanna hold it already. (and another post comes to an abrupt end)

No More Internet at Work

I guess that's a self-explaninary titlle.

It totally sucks because it's slow where I work, I can't even read the newspaper on-line. So my blog posts are going to be suffering. Also I started playing Sims again. ARG!!!!

Oh well the weekend is going to be interesting.

I Did a Very Narcissistic Thing

I added a new list over on the left side of my blog, it shows the other blogs I am writing at this moment.

Yup Narcissism at it finest right? But is it narcissism if I'm aware of it? Or is it more narcissistic if I'm pointing it out?

Anyways, check out my other blogs!

Tim Burton @ TIFF

 I went to the Tim Burton Exhibit this Sat at the TIFF building downtown. It was AWESOME! His art work is amazing, the props from the movies are so cool! I wish I could have taken pictures inside the exhibit, but I couldn't, which sucked. This is the creature at the door to the exhibit. Inside the exhibit there are lots of sketch's, some of them literally ripped out of sketch books. There was the suit from Edward Scissor Hands, which made a few of my friends notice that Johnny Depp is really skinny & really short. There was the Sand Worm from Beateljuice. There was also an amazing art piece that was like a marie-go-round/mobile that was black lit it was so cool & very mesmerizing. I didn't get a chance to check out the short films that were there, it was SUPER crowded.

If you like Tim Burton & this exhibit(which was put on by a New York Museum, can't remember which one right now) totally check it out.

WTF, really

I can't even begin to wrap my brain around this, Canned Air. Please check this out & maybe someone could explain to me if this is brilliant or, well, otherwise.

The Most Narcissistic Thin I've Seen.

I'm sure a lot of people have seen this already, the Life Size Wedding Cake of a bride in Texas. It's got to be the most narcissistic thing! This isn't even her wedding, it's a vow renewal. Take a look at the photo's & the article.

Today is a total write off

This is pretty much how I feel today

Common Sense Rules for Life

Just some helpful hints for life to help you out, & also to keep you from being the victim of  out & out rage from the quite nice person who you've annoyed so much that they snap and bust in your head on the bus because you were to self centred to take off that DAMN backpack that kept hitting them in the head since you're 6'4 & they're 5'1!!!!!!!
 Ahem, excuse me.

Rules
1) Stand in line at a bus stop, showing up & then butting in front of everyone, or pushing the old person to the side is not only rude, but it shows that you were too stupid to graduate from Kindergarten.
2) When  a bus arrives, wait till all the passengers are off the bus before trying to get in, where exactly are you going to go if they're trying to get off. This rule also applies to subways.
3) When on a bus or train move away from the doors, people are trying to get on & off the bus & you standing in the way does not help at all. The exception for this rule is if you are only going one or two, maybe three stops from where you got on.
4) If you happen to have a giant stroller, please move further back in the bus than the first seat at the front, it is really hard to get around those damn things when you're getting on the bus.
5) When using the escelator it's always stand right walk left, there's even a sing for that one. This rule must be eplimented durning rush hour.
6) When using the Tim Horton's drive through it is for drinks, tea, coffee, or hot chocolate. You can get food, but only if it's a quick order, like a doughnut you know you want or Timbits all of one kind or if you let the server choose the Timbits for you. If you want a meal, GO INSIDE!!!
7) If you are a smoker & you are outside do not light up while walking in a crowd, it's not only annoying, but can be dangrous.
8) When in a supermarket, dept. store, etc & are using a cart, do not leave it in the middle of the isle while you look at something. Also the isles are made larger to accomidate at least two of the carts so stick to one side.
9) Remember that when you are talking to someone on the phone at a call centre there is a real person on the end of the line. Just because you can't see them doesn't mean they aren't real.
10) The saying you get more flies with honey than with viniger is true, the nicer you are to customer service people the better your experince will be & the more they will go out of their way to help you.
11) Yelling at customer service people might get you a deal right away, but in the long run you will be known at that bitch or bastard by the whole store, restaurant, call centre.
12) Don't piss of restaurant staff, they control your food.
13) All customer service people talk about customers, good bad or weird.
14) When going to the midnight opening of a new blockbuster movie it is ok to save someone a place in line, but once the theatre opens it's doors, it's first come first serve for seats. Leaving coats on five chairs is just not cool at all, if your friends are too lazy to line up with you they don't get good seats.
15) When working customer service always remember that your job is to deal with the customer, to help them out, not to talk with your friend about, well anything. Customer first then you can talk all you like.
16) When on a bus remove your massively over stuffed backpack & place it on the floor between your feet, this gives more room for people to get on the bus & it's also less likely for you to be shoved aside when people are trying to get by you.
17) When getting on a bus keep movnig back so that there are no gaps, you can get a tonne of people on a bus.
18) Remember seats on buses or trains are for people, not your backpack, jacket, or your right leg. This doesn't apply if the bus or train is virtually empty.
19) When driving remember that there are pedisterions on the sidewalks.
20) Don't jay-walk for a bus, especially on busy two lane streets, there WILL be another one along in a few mintues.
21) When driving & turning a corner ALWAYS remember to look both ways, not just to make sure you have room to go, but also to make sure there isn't someone trying to cross the street, especially if they actualy have the right of way.
22) Remember when driving, you are NOT the only car on the road.
23) When it snows & you're driving remember to slow down, you do not have a lot of traction or control in these conditions.
24) Remember that just because you like certain music, doesn't mean everyone else does.
25) Remember that everyone has a camera at their ready these days, so if you work for the government remember you can be photographed being an idiot.
 26) When driving a bus full of people, with a lot of them standing, don't do that move forward in tiny increments because the light is about to change, it's hard to stay standing up, or if you are sitting down it hurts your neck.

That's all I can think of right now. I know a lot of them are about public transit, that's because that;s what I use. If you have any feel free to add them. 

I Work in the Artic Now

IT'S COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It really is, I'm sitting here at my desk in a blanket I brought from home. They say it's to keep the computers from overheating, but I think it's one of many tactics for trying to get us to quit so they don't have to pay us anymore money.

Anit-Day went on for a while

So my anti-day went on for more than the day. I did get stuff done, worked on my resume, went to Red Lobsters on Sat, & had an awesome Sunday family dinner, but didn't really want to do anything else, except watch TV. Thankfully I'm done with that right now, I can't say I'm done with it forever since that kind of feeling comes every once in a while. I've got so much on my mind right now. I also picked up a few new apps that I like, one's all about goal setting. it's called Goal Workshop. I've just started with it today, it started with brainstorming, & trying to come up with 50 or so personal goals is a lot harder than it sounds! I went with the big ones, be financially free, learn french, get married, buy a house, but after you spit out those & others like traveling, which in my case included mentioning each place individually, you start doing really random silly one's just trying to make it to 50, like I will finish reading my knitting for dummies book sometime this year. I even got my friend to help me out by asking what some of hers were, mind you with her it's mostly about owning stuff(she has possession issues) & then we got totally carried away with some of the most ridicules things like owning islands & having bubble babies since we don't want them getting hurt. It was all & all a fun day at work.

Anti-Day

Today feels like Anti-Day to me. I'm anti-social, anti-iPod, anti-knitting, anti-TV, anti-food, anti-.....well pretty anything right now. Everything is just blah. Now how am I going to waist my brain & time?

It's Choose Your Own Weather Day!!!

At least that's kind of how it feels. Today the forecast here in Toronto is for perception, they can't really be more specific than that, it'll all depend on the temp. We're going to get snow, freezing rain, rain & I'm sure that sunny patch's might be thrown in knowing how Toronto goes. If something truly freaky happens don't worry I will post about it. :)

Just a Quick Post

My Nanny is back from BC, she's here for a few days before she goes back home to NFLD, which is going to be fun. Right now my bro is watching Bravo with some Celtic music on, my mom's doing dish's & I'm knitting. There's been many discussioins of all kinds of things here in my place, everything from the indie Toronto music scene, to taxes, to baby issues.

Benefits of Outbound

I'm trying to look on the positive side of having to do surveys at work, since I'm going to be doing them for the next little while. I was originally told that we need 300 completed surveys & we'd be done, now I'm hearing that it's just for the city we're calling. After this city is done we've got 2 others to hit up, & there's a whole other outbound project coming up. So I'm totally updating my resume & also looking for other sources of income, & trying to find tax breaks. But since I'm at work right now & looking into all that stuff is going to take a while so I'm making due.
So what's good about Outbound? Well since a lot of people aren't home in the afternoon there's a lot of breaks between calls so I can chat with the other agents, & today I drew. Yup I brought my sketchpad & pencil crayons  to work, it felt good to do that while dealing with getting hung up on, yelled at & whatever else can happen.
So it's the Silver Lining for outbound.

Vintage Railway - We Got Married Again

I love them!
I'm totally bias, but still awesome! They have a show coming up on the 13th too!

My Saturday......

In quick secession this is what I've been doing today:
                           Laundry
                           Wii Sports Resort
                           Ate
                           Edited my Blog
                           Catching up on my Shows
                           Organizing E-Mails & Photos.
I felt busier though.

Much Editing

Don't be surprised at all if the look of my blog changes about 7 times in one day, possibly even more. I'm trying some things out, seeing what kinds of things I want to put on all that. & any feed back on the look would be awesome too!

Singing in the bathroom at work

I  said to a co-worker, I've grown up in Toronto, I'm used to strange things, especially because I worked downtown during both Carribanna weekend & Pride week, so I'm used to strange. But I walk into the work bathroom out here in North York & there's some chick sining in the stall! She was Ok, I probably wouldnt' pay for her album(which is how I judge how good someone is). So I walk I here this girl, I can't see her, she's in the stall, I thought maybe she had headphones on & didn't here the door open, so I go in a stall &  I pretty much slam the door behind me hopeing that she would realise she's not alone & stop singing, but no that didnt' work. Even after all was said & done(ie done with why I went to the bathroom) I came out of my stall to wash my hands(as EVERYONE should, but that's another post) & she's out at the sink sitll singing away. Strange.
I don't even know what she was singing about but it had baby in it a lot.

Hello!!!!!

Hi to all my followers!!!! All 4 of you!
I can't resist I get excited everytime I get a new follower or my stats go up, so that's always fun to me.
Anyways thanks for the follow, I hope I continue to entertain & inform you all!

I HATE Outbound!!!!!!

Yes that's right I'm back doing outbound!!! I HATE it!!!! It's so fusrating, people hang up on you all the time! But it's not just the haning up that's pissing me off, its the whole fact that I have to do it for a few hrs in the afternoon, it's pointless!
Little background, I work mornings at my job, there's only a handful of us that do, & the survey's don't start till the afternoon, also I don't take my lunch till most of the afternoon people are in, so I end up doing like 3hrs of survey's, when I could be in the inbound 'Q' doing a much better job at customer service, which is what I do, but no I get stuck in the stupid surveys!! I completed 1 survey today, & the company wants 300, ARG!!!!!

Another Fav Site!!

I love goin on Etsy, it's all handmand & vintage items, everything's so unique. My fav thing to do is to go to the bottom of the home page & click on the Recently Listed link, it scrolls through all the things that have just been posted, I like to look at all those items, there's always something that's there that I wouldn't have searched for myselt. I hightly recommend Etsy.

http://www.etsy.com/

My Fav Website!

I know it's super cheesy but I love TMZ!!!
I'm not big into celebrity stuff, but I love the show & the people who work there, they are sooo much fun!www.tmz.com

Work Work Work...............BREAK!!!!!!!

I love it when you're at work & your break sneaks up on you & you almost forget that you have to take it. It means the day is going by FAST! Which I love. Just another 45mins before I have to head out to my chiropractor, which I usually leave feeling awesome! Plus my 4 day weekend starts right at 4pm!!!!! I just wish I had somewhere exciting to go, but I'm poorish right now. So it's a couple of days of doing some personal bussiness, bank stuff so I'm less poorish, & then time to clean up the storage locker! That's going to be fun, old memories, toys & crap! It'll be nice to get rid of the crap, & with my bro's baby on the way this kid will be uber stalked in retro toys! As they're coming out I'll probably snap a few things, like the GI Joe base that's in my living room right now, which is cool of course, just dusty.

About to go to bed

Yup, that's the point of this post! It's super boring, but that's what's happening. So the film shoot has ended but these crazy people are still in my place!!!!! & I have to go to work tomorrow, as usual, but these people won't shut up! Not that I've told them that yet, they are very entertaining though.
Anyways what's new other than bedtime? Not too much, yup I'm boring! Ok if this sounds down or sad in my head it's not, it's super sarcastic. I'm hoping to get more exciting as I write. So far I'm just listening to a friend tell stories about her 3 year old, of course super cute. Can't remember enough to retell it though, sorry. It's all about kids today, my bro's going to be a dad in about 4 or 5 months, which is so weird!!!! He's my little bro too, well I call him my little bro, he's 4 years younger than me, that's what makes him my little bro. So he & his baby mama(which I can use) got pics from their ultrasound today. They didn't go with the 3D image(personaly I think those are creepy) they went with the old school ultrasound, you can see the kids face, it looks like one of those grey alians from Roswell! In one of the photo's the kid has his/her mouth open and he looks like the scream painting! 1 moment while I google the artist cause I'm totally blanking! Edvard Munch.
& now people are heading out I've gotta be social & say bye to them.

Video Shoot at my place, so strange

I'd say where to start but I'll start with the fact that my bro is holding the couch up to fix one of it's legs. Vintage Railway is at my place filming some promo thing, at least that's what I think it is. They're doing a little interview thing, it's fun though. Lots of laughs happening, too bad there's no bloopers cause that would be awesome!
Anyways they're awesome! So check them out! I can't write anymore because they're going to film & typing is loud aparently.

Family Day 2 or the Easiest day at work EVER!

There is only 26mins until my shift is over, I work in a call centre & I haven't taken a call all day, & neither has anyone else. Yup best day EVER!
The problem is I am soooooooooo bored!!!!!! I've played Angry Birds & Creeps on my iPod, but mindless games can get painfully annoying if you have nothing to interrupt them. I've blogged, I've even looked up one of my new fav characters from X-men, Fantomex, & I'm still bored!!!!!!
I should have brought my knitting or something! But who knew? Oh wait I had a feeling it would go like this. See I'm in a call centre that mostly does internal customer service & the places that I get called by, whorehouse's, sales agents & the like, I'm pretty sure they're not working today. Oh well at least I can say I have 2 blog entries! Compared to another blog I started this is amazing!
But now my brain is turning to mush! I had so much I wanted to talk about, but right now I have NOTHING!!!! So I'll leave it at that & come back when my brain has decided it wants to tell the world or my fingers something.

Family Day

This is my 1st blog post here in blog spot. I'm at work right now, it's family day I know, but apparently only certain people's families matter. I wish they would change the name to we needed a day off in February in Ontario, or my favorite holiday, the bullshit holiday.
Anyways that's just what's going on right at this exact moment. I should say what I'm planning on doing with this blog, nothing!!! Well to be more specific, I don't really have plans per say. I'll be writing stuff that's happened in my life, adding photo's, vid's any links that I find interesting, you know the usual stuff. It's mostly going to be things I find interesting. Whenever I get followers who are interested in things I am I might focus a bit, but I doubt it, my brain doesn't exactly focus on one subject.
I like lots of stuff, here's a list!:
                Comics(mostly marvel & mostly X-men)
                Writing
                Reading(mostly Fantasy)
                TV(that's a list in itself)
                Knitting
                Sewing
                Drawing(I'll post a few of mine, I'm not saying it's going to be pretty though)
               Photography
               etc, etc, etc.
There's more I'm just bored with the list.
Also this blog will be a place that I will be talking about my very talented friends & relatives. I know lots of talented people who do nothing with their talent!!!! Or genius in a few cases, and I plan on talking about them & showcasing their work, weather they like it or not!!!!!!!! (Ok, Ok, I will be getting permission 1st)

So that's a preview, I promise more interesting blogs, I'm at work so the brain doesnt' work so well here, I think they put something into the A/C to make you compliant.

If you've got Family Day off I hope you're spending it with your family, in whatever form your family comes in. If you're at work, enjoy the time & a half pay!!!!
